Posted @withrepost • @australia Hey girl, wanna grab a gum leaf sometime? 😏 Rogue the fluffy poser, captured by @rosslongphotography at @queensland's @currumbinsanctuary, has found fame after being a HOT item of discussion on the @latelateshow with @j_corden recently. This #wildlife sanctuary is only half an hour from @destinationgoldcoast, and is home to over 50 #koalas (although, just quietly, Rogue here certainly has the best modelling potential) 😉 TIP: Book a 'koala photo' experience and you can get up and personal for a photo cuddling one of these supermodels.

JOURNAL OF THE PAST : Sailing the Whitsunday Islands in Australia 🇦🇺
.
.
A few years ago, we sailed through the beautiful Whitsunday Islands on a magnificent and beautifully maintained tall ship called Solway Lass (built in Holland in 1902). The Whitsundays is blessed with having 74 islands, 66 of which are in their natural state, with no buildings or resorts. This makes sailing around the Whitsundays like a voyage of discovery, as some of the islands still look like they did when Captain Cook’s tall ship (The Endeavour) sailed by in the 1770’s.
.
I captured this when we hiked up Whitsunday Islands National Park, looking down at the beautiful Whitehaven Beach, famous for its pure white sand and crystal clear waters. Whenever I look at this photo, I remember that wonderful time we spent on the majestic tall ship, gazing at some pretty breathtaking views and sunsets. Australia – truly a land of many wonders…💜💜

So how was your commute today? According to @antstagram_sa, the centre lane at beach is pretty clear… Follow the sand highway right to the top of frame and you’ll find yourself at the mouth of Australia’s greatest waterway, the mighty Murray River – as it empties almost 2000 km of fresh water into the roaring Southern Ocean. A little further down you’ll also find the wild and windswept – a long, narrow ribbon of wetlands, saltpans, dunes and beaches stretching 150km from @officialfleurieupeninsula to the . With miles of coastal wilderness, incredible fishing and surfing, rugged four-wheel-driving and a rich Aboriginal history – it’s a prime spot to ditch the diary and go off grid. Rest your head by the river at @birksharbour, or in the heart of town at @australasian1858 for a little boutique luxury and a world of local flavour! 🚗 🏖 [📍Location: just a 2hr flight from Sydney to in – then a 1.5hr drive to Goolwa in ]

✨If your FOUNDATION is weak what you’re building will crumble . ✨Nothing I’ve ever had came easy . I tried to take shortcuts and play the system and I ended up bad on my end both times. ✨It’s like he spoke to me one day and said “Listen, I’ll give you what you pray for but you’ll have to work for it. It’ll be hard . Nothing worth having comes easy but you’ll appreciate it more. You’re spoiled & im gonna break you from that mentality, just know I’ll never put you through anything in vain. It’s all necessary” ✨And that’s exactly what happened . He BROKE me .I’ve had my share of hard times, sometimes they hit me like falling dominos . I’ve been disappointed but I’ve never questioned why. I just kept it pushing with eyes full of tears and a daily reminder to “Suck that shit up and keep going .You got stuff to do . “ ✨There are no shortcuts to success. Every entrepreneur goes through something to get where they need to be . Its challenging. But keep going . At the end of that tunnel is something beautiful. Something being built brick by brick 🧱 with a 💪 strong foundation and made to last generations to come . ✨ ✨ ✨ #amazingarchitecture#building_shotz#businesssuccess#dontquityourdaydream#buildyourempire#beyourownboss#goaldigger#growthmindset#hustlehard#createcultivate#createeveryday#thisisqueensland

We all have those friends who we INTEND to catch up with, but never actually do. You know the ones that, when you do see each other, you actually really enjoy their company, and you say ‘we should do this more often!’ but never do? ⠀
Call them. ⠀
Meet them for coffee. ⠀
You won’t regret it! ☕️

Okay so do you guys also need to be forced to do some things?! (like i am all the time by Patrick) And then it ends up being great, at least most of the time 😂Patrick forced me to go up to Carlo Sandblow on our Morning workout the other day and I was just like nooo way too many stairs but then the view was spectacular and we ended up coming back the next day to take pictures! Today he „forced“ me to do a walk down to Wallaman Falls and this time it was not the view that made it all worth it but the feeling of being proud that I actually managed to do it. So yeah most of the time he has to force me to be active 😅 but that way I get out of my comfort zone and can only grow with the experiences 💪🏼

Okay Leute müsst ihr auch manchmal zu Dingen gezwungen werden auf die ihr eigentlich keine Lust habt? (So wie ich von Patrick immer) und dann am Ende ist es richtig gut, zu mindest meistens 😂
Bei unserem Morgen-Workout vor ein paar Tagen hat mich Patrick dazu gezwungen bis hoch zum Carlo Sandblow zu laufen und ich hatte keine Lust weil es einfach viiieeel zu vieele Treppen waren aber dann war der Ausblick einfach so spektakulär, dass wir am nächsten Tag wieder gekommen sind um Bilder zu machen! Heute hat er mich dazu „gezwungen“ zu dem Wallaman Wasserfall runter zu laufen und diesmal war es nicht der Ausblick der alles wett gemacht hat sondern das stolze Gefühl es tatsächlich geschafft zu haben. Ja okay meistens muss er mich dazu zwingen aktiv zu sein 😅 aber so komme ich aus meiner Komfortzone raus und wachse an den Erfahrungen 💪🏼

I constantly find myself seeking moments like these. Seeking an escape from my routines, my obligations, my working life. From what people are expecting of me, from what I expect from myself.
Sometimes I find it hard to rationalize, hard to focus, hard to balance it all.
This is usually when I know that I have to get in my car and drive somewhere. Leave the bright lights, clamour, stress and judgement of civilization behind and escape into nature, even if it's only for a day or two.
Here I find that time slows down. I find that when time slows down, your mind slows down. You start to take more notice of the simple things in life again, start finding yourself smiling at little things that you'd usually not pay attention to, once more.
You remember how simple life can be, how much ourselves as individuals and us as a society complicate things, complicate life.
We build ourselves alternate realities via our cities and we segregate ourselves and become detached from nature. From where our species came. We sever our roots and wonder why we are always fighting to stand up straight, to stand tall and proud. To withstand the shit that if not currently, eventually every single conscious human being has to face in their lifetime. Weather it's sickness, death, depression, addiction, loss, heartbreak.. the list goes on.
For an ever growing majority, our lives are growing more and more chaotic, we look everywhere for advice, support, strength, inspiration, an easy way out.. we seek stability, we seek growth, we seek clarity and answers to our questions. What if the antidote to this chaos is simply to be found in balance. And what if the perfect balance for a modern day human being is simply a stable and consistant dosage and indulgence of the simplicity and calmness to be found in nature?
The next time that you are feeling stressed, confused, anxious, unsure, pressured, uninspired or demoralised; force yourself to get away from it all. It doesn't matter if it's going out fishing, going on a little roadtrip, going to your favourite beach or lookout or doing a hike that you've never done before. Just go out into nature, it helps me, I'm positive it could help you ❤️

Throwback Thursday. That time I got to walk the red carpet at the @cmaaofficial awards. A massive night and I got to tick the red carpet off my bucket list. #lovedit ⠀. 📸@snappedatagig ⠀

🤷‍♂️I found one of those gems I was looking for. I wrote this on our way to Paris last year when we thought, but weren’t sure, if we were seeing the northern lights. Our flight from Taipei went way up to the arctic circle. Anyway, it’s called northern lights. Just a brief clip for your Thursday.

|| we went back for seconds because the Carlo Sandblow felt like we were walking in a dream || ✨💕✨

Our first night, our jaws dropped to the sand with how stunning the views were. We found a group of kids sliding down the dunes on their boogie boards where they offered us a ride (in their cutest accents ever!) Pretty soon we were talking to their dad—of 7 kids+with a family of 12 kids! He was an amazing Christian man and after running into the family again at the grocery store a few hours later, they invited us to their home for dinner! Normally on vacation, I’m a “pass me a lava flow+make as little conversation unless I’m ordering pool nachos” type so going to a strangers home on vacation was foreign (pun intended) to us. But it was THE most amazing night! Two Christian families with combined 19 kids, talking about God and life and all of our blessing was a night I really couldn’t have dreamed of. Not to mention the kids were the sweetest, most polite, squeeze them to death of cuteness the whole time. Jed and I kept looking at each other like, how did we get here?! But I’m so glad we did. I love this life of adventure with you Jed Dalton. #beating50percent#thisisqueensland
